Boat Consignment at Nautical Ventures: What to Expect

There comes a time when you as a boat owner want to either sell your boat, or upgrade for a better one. When that happens, you are left wondering and asking – what is the best way to sell your boat or where can you trade-in your boat with better options? This is where Nautical Ventures comes in.

We have been providing fun on the water products and experiences to the South Florida region for over 30 years – and this list includes everything from boats to yacht tenders, kayaks and stand-up paddleboards, and more. We are your go-to people for fun on the water – and there is a reason for that.

Of course, it’s easy to find a broker who will list your boat and promise that they will sell it. More importantly, how do you really know which broker can best serve your needs and have your best interests in mind? The one that can show you a proven marketing plan that results in actual sales.

Many sellers already see Nautical Ventures as a market leader not only in Florida but internationally, and we have the sales data and awards to prove it. And since you’ve found us, you’re already half-way there.

Here are some more great benefits to selling your boat with Nautical Ventures:

Exposure.

Boat consignment at Nautical Ventures means your boat is getting exposure on professional websites worldwide for maximum exposure – not just Craigslist.

We have a database of thousands of emails of prospective buyers that are on the market looking for boats and many yacht brokers themselves, because they know that Nautical Ventures gets some of the best inventory around.

We have locations in different boating markets in Florida and this cross-brokerage relationship allows us to put buyers and sellers together in ways other brokerages cannot. We know – and our sales team knows -- that more often than not, your boat can be in Fort Lauderdale but your buyer can be in Tampa. Nautical Ventures is in both locations.

Faster Sales.

It’s a well-known fact that properly presented and marketed boats sell faster than those which are not. With our talented and dedicated marketing team, we are able to not only present and professionally photograph your boat to ensure it gets sold faster than average, but also put your boat in top web ranking results within hours.

Better Price on Boat Consignment.

You may still be wondering, what is boat consignment anyways? Boat consignment is similar to selling your pre-owned boat yourself, but we do all the work for you. The process is simple and easy. You will turn over your boat to us, while

retaining complete ownership and our professional marketing team and reputation will stand behind your product and advertise and sell your boat for you.

In other words, we are the middle entity that sells your boat and take a small 10% commission of the sale, or base fee of $2,500 in return.

What do we need from you to sell your boat?

Selling your boat with us is easy, and if it’s not – let us know. All we need is a copy of title in sellers name, copy of their Driver’s License and proof of insurance. In some cases, especially when it’s a large boat docked behind an owner’s house, you would still be able to use it. However, we advise that the best practice for selling a boat is to have it at our dealership where we can have it prepped, cleaned, maintained and ready to present to the appropriate buyer. And, with the added benefit of having waterfront access, our experienced captains and sales team is able to now only show your boat on land, but on water also.

If you’re ready to sell your boat, or trade-in your boat for a new one, please give us a call.
